2010 Peugeot 107 1.0L Petrol · LF60 XVK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of deferred repairs and recurring mechanical wear. The most recent test in November 2024 at 62,517 miles resulted in a pass after an initial failure, indicating that the owner addressed immediate issues regarding a defective front tyre and wiper blade. While the car passed, the presence of ongoing advisories for worn suspension arm bushes across multiple years suggests that these components are reaching the end of their functional life and require close monitoring. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 62,517 miles represents exceptionally low usage, averaging 3,900 miles per year. This low usage often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear from high mileage. Between December 2022 and November 2024, the vehicle covered 16,715 miles, showing a consistent low-use pattern. However, the low mileage has not prevented the onset of corrosion noted on the nearside rear brake pipe or the deterioration of the door hinge hardware. A physical inspection must prioritize the front suspension, as both the nearside and offside lower suspension arm bushes have been flagged as worn since at least 2023. These faults have remained stable without resolution but will eventually lead to steering instability and increased noise if not replaced. The buyer should also inspect the nearside rear brake pipe mentioned in the 2023 record to ensure the corrosion covered by grease has not progressed to a point that risks fluid leaks or structural failure. The bodywork shows signs of previous impact, specifically a damaged passenger door catching the front wing and a damaged front bumper. These issues, combined with the deteriorated door hinge, suggest the vehicle has suffered minor collisions that were not beyond cosmetic repair. Given the age of the Peugeot, a thorough inspection should also check for hidden rust in the sills and wheel arches, as low-mileage vehicles often sit for long periods, allowing surface oxidation to take hold.
